Pros

Product is addressing a real space in the market Plenty of funding to invest and drive growth Some truly great individuals to work with who want to make a difference

Cons

Management not coming clean on transition to mid-size company. I've seen many good people depart Illumio and with the company message..."This is normal"....turning over almost entire depts is normal? Some leaders at the top don't have the intelligence and skills to build a strong culture of success, teamwork and trust. The culture at Illumio has turned 180 from one where there was trust and collaboration...now it seems folks are constantly looking over their shoulder. Inflexibility of senior management and the Board, to correct course. The company has gone from huge potential to one that reeks of almost desperation to succeed in the marketplace.

Pros

Never a dull moment here at Illumio. Always looking for those transparent all-hands that tell us how great we are. Knowing that we are going through a "normal" transition and some degree of internal disruption is ok.. Nice logo and colors

Cons

Culture....the good went away and replaced by something that is rather stinky Looks like a duck....It's quacking...(sounds like a )…., Nobody wants this company to be Uber or WeWork clone.....redefine your definition of leadership

Pros

A product that has a good TAM and fills a real need in the market place Tons of funding...Nobody has ever told me to watch my travel expenses :) Sales is the leading function here...take a back seat y'all

Cons

Complete lack of trust in some of the e-staff. (yes folks here talk about this) Some functions (finance is the one that comes to mind) seem to have low morale and do not respond (had a question on something and nobody replied to me...even after 3 tries..lame lame lame) The culture here is one directional. Feedback is discounted and ignored

Illumio Response

First, thanks for taking time to review us. And, I agree with your view that we have a tremendous market potential and a product that addresses it well. Nobody in the field should ever have their requests for help ignored and I’m sorry you had that experience. I hope you’ll come to me or someone on the leadership team if this happens again. I also hope you’ll share your feedback with me as well. All of us are very interested in the experience of our field teams so we can make it easier for us to compete and win in the market. I am sincere about that. I’d like to know what you think. Illumio is in the middle of an exciting transition as we move from start-up to an established, mid-sized company. As it happens, our ways of connecting and communicating can take a hit during these times. In response to this, we’ve expanded our channels for anonymous feedback and questions. We’ve added more sessions for executives and employees to have face time. And we’re continuing to think of new and creative ways to keep the 'start-up feel' even as we grow. The company as a whole is focusing inward and committed to listening to all employees, in all locations, and across all levels. We know that there is always room for improvement and I hope that, with your help, we can identify those areas more quickly. Thank you for your contributions to Illumio and I do hope we can talk soon.
